Russia has warned it will take “compensatory measures” after the US moved nuclear weapons into Europe in its latest WW3 threat.<\/p>\n

Sergei Lavrov, the Russian foreign minister, issued the threat while speaking at the High-Level International Conference Eurasian Security: Reality and Prospects in a Transforming World.<\/p>\n

He said: “Increased strategic risks are created as a result of the forward deployment of American nuclear weapons in a number of European countries and the implementation of so-called ‘joint nuclear missions’.<\/p>\n

“This has an extremely destabilizing charge. Against the backdrop of a general increase in threats from NATO, it forces us to resort to compensatory measures.”<\/p>\n

Local reports from the Russian state media group RIA said Lavrov’s words were as a result of “Western policies in Europe, the system of confidence-building measures and arms control has been destroyed, which includes the US withdrawal from a number of security treaties”.<\/p>\n

As well as backing Russia’s rivals Ukraine in its ongoing war in Europe, Washington has infuriated Moscow via its backing of Israel the Middle East war that is raging.<\/p>\n

At a meeting this week, both Russia and the US vetoed each others’ resolutions of the Israel-Hamas war at the UN Security Council.<\/p>\n

It sparked reminiscent nods back towards the Cold War, with both claiming the other was acting in bad faith over the vetoes.<\/p>\n
